This is one of the biggest myths when it comes to football. You don't save money by playing the 108 million dollar QB. In fact one could argue that you save money by not playing them. So if all things are equal, you go with the cheaper option on the field.
It is 100% true with Jerry Jones proved most recently by Greg Hardy. And you don't save money by not playing the expensive QB as much as you limit your options with the rookie.
This is not New England 2001 where Bledsoe was finally ready to play at the very end of the year.
If that team had Dez, a great OL, and a brilliant rookie RB, Bledsoe would have won his job back. Instead they chose a 2nd year kid who made a lot of small plays and leaned on his outstanding defense.
This defense is not as good as the Pats of 2001.
People keep saying this, but it is 100% bullshit. If anything, he adds a dimension with his legs and the read options and designed bootlegs.
No. You know there is no way he knows the whole offense. And Romo is a better passer I don't care what stats Dak has accumulated in six games.
Romo might not run naked bootlegs but he really doesn't need to as don't most QBs. He still runs plays from the pistol the primary choices being whether to hand off or throw off the fake, two things Romo does very well..
Yes they've spoon fed Dak and he's absorbed everything, but he's not superhuman enough to have learned the nuances of a 14 year veteran.
